Im writing to voice my objection to restriction on access to purchasing of leveraged ETFs. I am already required by my broker to assert that I am knowledgeable and financially able to accept the risk associated with these investments. Further, the right to decide for myself is part of Americas greatness. I have benefitted greatly from having leveraged ETF as part of my diverse portfolio. There are more consequential threats to individuals welfare which require policing.

Don't let FINRA regulates member brokerage firms and exchange markets. operating under the direction of the SEC is a mistake. Both are stupid. Let the exchanges run their own operation. Get lost FINRA and SEC.

I oppose restrictions on my ability to invest in leveraged and inverse funds. I'm an adult with an ability to think and understand both potential risks and rewards. A person's understanding is not correlated with his net worth. Continue to allow me the benefit to make money with a variety of financial instruments in a variety of market dynamics.

I oppose any regulation that restricts my right to invest in funds or ETFs of my choosing. In particular, any regulation that restricts the ability to purchase leveraged or inverse funds, provided the funds themselves are regulated by the SEC and full and complete information is available on them such that I'm able to make an informed decision.

I request FINRA officials to reconsider restrictions on ability to invest in leveraged products. I understand the complexity and risk involved.

I strongly believe investors have the right to freely access the entirety of the public securities markets without arbitrary restrictions. Thank you Rick Shields

Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and thier risks.

I would like you people to explain to me why you think you and biden should have sole access too the high yield investments and leave us working people the low yield paper? Do you really believe exclusion can be legislated for your benefit only (the rich)? Take your Rule #22-08 and stick it as Johnny Paycheck use to say!

Inverse ETF's are important tools for me to reduce my tendency to churn my account. With my positions hedged by inverse trades I am OK with leaving good investments as they are, thus enabling me to collect dividends necessary for living expenses.

This appears to be a veiled attempt to disenfranchise retail investors to the benefit of institutional investing teams and financial managers. Even if that was not the intent, these proposed rules will have that effect. I object to being denied access to investment products others are allowed to access, regardless of the reason. If there are 'complex products' that are so problematic as to require these restrictions on retail investors the products themselves should be removed.
